Stopping HLS

The stopHls() method, accessible from the useMeeting hook, is used to stop the interactive livestream of a meeting.

Example

import { useMeeting } from "@videosdk.live/react-sdk";

const MeetingView = () => {
  const { stopHls } = useMeeting();

  const handleStopHls = async () => {
    // Stop Hls
    try {
      await stopHls();
    } catch (err) {
      console.error("stopHls failed:", err);
    }
  };

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={handleStopHls}>Stop Hls</button>
    </>
  );
};

Event associated with HLS

• onHlsStateChanged - The onHlsStateChanged() event is triggered whenever the state of meeting HLS changes.

• You will get HLS_STOPPING and HLS_STOPPED status on calling stopHls().

note

downstreamUrl is now depecated. Use playbackHlsUrl or livestreamUrl in place of downstreamUrl

import { Constants, useMeeting } from "@videosdk.live/react-sdk";

function onHlsStateChanged(data) {
   const { status } = data;

  if (status === Constants.hlsEvents.HLS_STARTING) {
    console.log("Meeting Hls is starting");
  } else if (status === Constants.hlsEvents.HLS_STARTED) {
    console.log("Meeting Hls is started");
  } else if (status === Constants.hlsEvents.HLS_PLAYABLE) {
    // on hlsStateChanged started you will receive  playbackHlsUrl and livestreamUrl
    const {  playbackHlsUrl } = data;
    console.log("Meeting Hls is Playable");
  } else if (status === Constants.hlsEvents.HLS_STOPPING) {
    console.log("Meeting Hls is stopping");
  } else if (status === Constants.hlsEvents.HLS_STOPPED) {
    console.log("Meeting Hls is stopped");
  } else {
    //
  }

 }

const {
  meetingId
  ...
} = useMeeting({
  onHlsStateChanged,
  ...
});
